Ant moats are small devices filled with water that create a barrier ants can't cross. Hang the moat above your feeder to keep ants away.
Fill the moat with water regularly to ensure it remains effective. Check for any debris or blockages that could prevent ants from being deterred.
Clean the moat periodically to prevent mold or algae buildup. A clean moat will continue to effectively protect your hummingbird feeder from ants.
Position the moat between the hanging point and the feeder to create a barrier ants cannot pass. Ensure the moat is securely attached to avoid spills.
Monitor the moat regularly to ensure it is functioning properly. Adjust the water level if needed and inspect for any signs of ant activity.
Using ant moats is a simple and effective way to protect your hummingbird feeders from ant invasions. Enjoy watching your hummingbirds in peace!
